>Nothing got better from the physical special splitI should introduce you to: Venusaur, Butterfree, Pidgeot, Pikachu, Raichu, Nidoqueen, Nidoking, Clefable, Vileplume, Arcanine, Poliwrath, Victreebel, Tentacruel, Rapidash, Magneton, Cloyster, Gengar, Kingler, Hitmonchan, Electabuzz, Gyarados, Kabutops, Dragonite, Mewtwo, Feraligatr, Noctowl, Xatu, Azumarill, Umbreon, Murkrow, Misdreavus, Sneasel, Magcargo, Piloswine, Corsola, Mantine, Kingdra, Porygon2, Entei, Tyranitar, Ho-Oh, Blaziken, Swampert, Mightyena, Beautifly, Shiftry, Breloom, Pelipper, Claydol, Crawdaunt, Sharpedo, Flygon, Cacturne, Lunatone, Solrock, Medicham, Altaria, Roselia, Exploud, Huntail, Absol, Seviper, Relicanth, Salamence, Metagross, Groudon, Rayquaza, Jirachi and Deoxys.
